Positive Thinking-Positive Vibes (Part 3) #IYP ‘Longevity’

Does this Positive thoughts B.S really work?

Mom’s how do You Find the Time?

Yes yes it’s part 3 baby! So you are still here, still reading, still learning, still vibing- then this must be for you! I plan to take all I have learned and continue to learn through all my training and pass it on…I was blessed enough to have the light shine on me so I want to be able to pay it forward to you. Dont get it twisted I am not some kind of foo foo do gooder, what I am though is someone who understands how all this work I put in actually can changes your life and I truly think can change the way you see the world. That power in itself is indescribable and I would also say that the possibilities, opportunities, and vastness of change are limitless because once you start seeing what you have been taught or maybe even (sold) your entire life up to this point may not be the whole story and once we can learn to see our mind for what it is…a tool. We then can use it…yes use our most powerful tool, instead of allowing the mind to use and run us and our lives. This is so powerful that thankfully it does not happen overnight if it did I think there would have been some type of overload. So we just plug away at it bit by bit and before you know it day after day things just keep changing for the better.

Now again this does not mean its all sun shine and unicorns all day errr day!

If anyone ever ever tries to sell you on that..laugh, then run. In the end it is hard work because we are forcing oursleves to unlearn everything we have taken in since birth form our parents, society, school, media/TV/movies. The question then becomes and I state this because as you can image in 10 years I have seen so so many people come and go, the question then becomes; Am I worthit?

If you say YES! Phuck YES I am worth it then I can guarantee you this much that POSITIVE THINKING AND POSITIVE VIBES will pay off 10 fold. There is absolutely no way it won’t and getting back to the question at hand ‘am I worth it?’ So if you are and it takes a few months of dedication, time and effort before it becomes habitual(which it will) but in the end the pay off is limitless then the ROI is something only FaceBook or Warren Buffet could dream on investing in. Do you feel me on this one? Investing in yourself is magic, I don’t think there is a higher or better place or form of investment!! Yaaaa put that in your pipe and smoke it!!

Let’s talk about the change…and here I want to give you some examples of how for me personally POSITIVE THINKING and the time put in bettering myself has allowed me to see things differently, understand things way more clearly and allowed the PAUSE that slows the emotional response triggers from our old reptilian brain. Ok first off I went from thinking that things just happen either to us or around us to coming to terms with the understanding there are energies and higher powers around us at play and we can tap into this (and by higher powers I do not reffer to religions). Awareness — one of the most looked over factors, I mean to be able to confidently sit in your own mind, body, and soul to be aware of what is happening to you- around you- within you I mean this right here is more than worth the price of admission, don’t go to your grave not realizing this one potential. How does this relate to your day to day life? Well in any situation I now have the ability to see how the circumstance is effecting all aspects of ‘myself’ again mind body soul. Staying on the energy topic it also started to become clear to me that there were energy vampires out there -these people and you may either know some or may even have some of these tendencies as I know I did, they are what I refer to as having that rain cloud over them 24/7. They are not so much interested in listening or talking but rather re packing this negative/fearful energy and just having a big pitty party fest about how everything thats wrong in the world happens to them…(as they sip their $7 latte?!!!) I was able to drop all these people like bad habbits! This was not easy either because I had that F.O.M.O (fear of missing out) issue- I wanted to still be part of the crew, so again it took some time- yet the more I distanced myself the easier it became, the better I felt…and here is the real magic “when you drop something or get ride of something you create an opening for something new and for me the people that I then attracked into my life where of this higher vibration. What I mean by this is if you have a closet full and I mean floor to ceiling full of stuff, there is no way to put anything else in there, correct. Yes until you what?…get ride of some of the things that NOLONGER SERVE YOU OR YOUR SOULS PURPOSE, allowing for space!

This space I speak of is what it’s all about…it’s what is! It’s where creativity comes from, it’s how we are guided by the higher energies, it’s what allows us to be! To flow! To vibe! To heal! To be human! SPACE…let’s talk more about this on our next meet up!!

Having your Health…or not? #IYP ‘Longevity’

Without our health we have nothing

It is all about Longevity, the long haul, we talk it all the time our health through longevity!~

Do you remember the feeling the morning…or afternoon after a bad bender out on the town when we consume way way to much alcohol?

Do you remember the words you told yourself NO better yet swore to yourself??…well I do every single time I felt that way, which seemed to be a least every other weekend in my late teens and early 20’s. Those words were ‘phuck this I am never drinking again!!’

Ok so I just wanted to get some context for the session at hand here…that feeling. Sick, no energy, no ambition, no life, no drive, no care, just sleep, no motivation, nothing…just basically trying to hold on until it passes…correct, ok you dig the vibe I’m throwing down- so this ties in with my rant today about our health.

Its been a hot hot minute since I can remember being sick, and this time I mean a cold, a virus, flu…not the self inflicted type! It is so true how quickly we forget or take for granted our health….until we…don’t have it. Speaking for myself I work very very hard at maintaining my health, and I understand we are all human and it’s nature’s course that we all fall ill from time to time. I also understand that a messure of our health is how quickly one bounce’s back once you have fallen ill. I think the last time I was sick enought to miss work, the gym and creating content was years ago let’s say at least 2 years ago. So if we use the example of drinking and we understand how bad we feel after that, what I can not understand is why more people are NOT taking care of themselves then actually are taking care of themselves? I am reverse engineering this simply to point out the “FLIP SIDE” here and what I mean by that is this…for me it is rare to not feel good, yet for so so so many people I know it’s the exact opposite. They either rarely feel good or when and if they do they are so not use to it they are unsure of what to do about it.

This little bug took me down for 3 days…and I mean it could have been way worse but I felt; very tired, unmotivated, sluggish, some pain, a soarish throat, no energy, low to no brain function for creativity, phuck all for ambition, and didn’t mind kinda just zooning out (for me that was to heal). Ok now in all honestly and no bull shit here the words I used to describe my little crybaby cold for the last 3 days are what most people live with everyday all day. I even had a client of mine say this to me “get us to this it’s what happen’s as you age”. That statement was the reason I wanted to write this becasue I continue to here this type of horse shit come out of peoples mouth’s…ohh when you turn 25 its all down hill from there…then its 30, then 35…I mean a blame game against age? What I can not grasp though is where we lost our way…I mean when did everything else…and I mean every phucking single thing else become more important than our health?

Skip breakfast or pop something that’s from a box with no nutritional value full of sugar and chemicals in your gut as you fly off to work, then have a coffee break with either a smoke or some kind of doughnut or croissant at the staff meeting, maybe hit the fast food shit whole for lunch which is just more poison, yup another coffee break…(you fill in what comes to mind)…then let’s hit up a pub for drink’s and some type of SHIT pub grub again more poison to round out the work day. Then home time, we wonder why the phuck we have NO energy so we sit in front of the boob tube maybe slam an energy drink before bed, wash that down with something we throw in the microwave…hit the sack and wonder why we can’t sleep…then get up and do it all over again!! This compound effect day after day month after month year after year on our bodies…to me seems criminal.

These are the words I live by; ‘NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS HEALTHY FEELS’. Until you yourself have experienced that… I can not even put into words the feelings, the experience, the power, the movement, the flow, the brain power, the determination, the drive, the satisfaction, the limitless, the energy, the motivation, the gratitude, the gratefulness, strongness…phuck it’s endless what ‘feeling better than you did the day before day after day’ actually is. When I do try to describe it to or explain it to the ‘newbies’ they look at me like I am trying to get them to join my cult. But in all honesty it was the universe that reminded me of what NOT HAVING YOUR HEALTH felt like and through that understanding awareness and compassion that I write this to us all as a wake up call

Without our health we have nothing

How A Last Minute Road Trip…lead me to Empathy: #IYP ‘Longevity’

Does this look appetizing to you?

So first off…why the picture of fast food? How does that relate to EMPATHY? Great question, and the answer is…I am going to tell you this story; of how a last minute phone call that took me away for a long weekend road trip to babysit someone’s awesome children due to a family emergency gave me the insight to see empathy for the situation which happens all to often in which I would normally 100% of the time pass judgement on and shake my head in disbelief. However due to this little tale I, through compassion and understanding have a small insight into the “why’s” of people’s choices. There is no way I support these choice’s but I can understand it and see why it’s the easy choice…I phucking get it!!

Ok a little insight into how I or we would ‘usually roll’ if we were going to be setting out on a 4–5 hour drive on a long weekend road trip. So at least a day or 2 prior to the leave date we would make plans/ideas for snacks on the road, waters, etc and as well make a small items list of meals or more hearty snacks if we arrived late and nothing was open, or that just in case factor. We would then do a grocery run the day of or night before we left for all those goodies. Then within the hours before departing we would make up the goodies and pack up the ‘to go’ cooler and be on our merry way all stocked up and stoaked up with healthy, delicious treats for our journey! Like I mentioned this is normally! This time however, it was not in the cards…so I rolled a whole other way!

Ok we get the call at about 4pm and the goal was ASAP to leave to lend a helping hand…so pack your shit up and rock it within the next 30 minutes, BOOM that’s- that! So no prep time to shop, no prior food ingested before leaving it was just head out, I did manage to grab a few banana’s an avacado, water and an apple. There you have it hit play “ON THE ROAD AGAIN…I JUST CAN’T WAIT TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD AGAIN!! It’s Friday evening, it is the long weekend, the weather is absolutely beautiful so the roads are jammed packed and traffic is pretty thick, not a snails pace but just under steady…. we are not winning any speed setting races if ya dig what I’m putting down. Within the first let’s say 2 hours I went through my last minute snacks and am now starting to get hungry for something hearty something solid. You know what it’s like when you kinda start getting hungry no big deal yet, but I do start noticing others eating in the vehicles around me, most if not all are some type of burger and fries type deal from one of the many buger joint chains. Still not a biggie for me…cool but as traffic starts to slow just a little, and the hours started to creep from that 2 hour mark to the 3.5 hour mark…now I am hungry for sure and at this point I have just decided to keep my eye open for a place to swing into to get something to munch on. This is where my awareness (my practice) comes into play, becasue I made a conscious decision to look for food (and to verify I mean the type of foods that are fit to fuel a healthy 110% high efficient running body)…I start to really really be aware of my surroundings. This is where the story changes.

After 30 minutes of my decision nothing yet as far as good or healthy food choice, ok I get it fair enough I just started looking. 45 minutes later, nothing 1 hour 25 minutes, still nothing and at this point I am almost ready as the traffic is at a stop to ask the family beside me in their huge motor home for some of their left over fast food shit…which I have not touched in at least 9–10 years…so poppa was phucking HUNGRY!! At this point again traffic is stopped in both directions we are near what they call a gasoline alley lots of gas stations, and fast food joints. There was a stalled car which caused this mess of a wait. Deal with it, and be situationally aware my higher self said to me after what seemed like an eternity in a daze but was a total of about 15 minutes of listening to Meatloafs’s great hits (ps ‘I would do anything for love’…great phucking song!!) So I start looking around we are all stopped we are all human we all have the same issues we bleed the same blood -red and spend the same money -green. So what do I see; first off I see a lot and I mean a lot of families together which I think right away is awesome this is a very strong bond to create good values in our family times together, I see a lot of the kids on their phones, either listening to music -you know I love that (go get some of my free music at www.mossamo.com for your next road trip!!) I see them swiping so they are either on Instagram, FB , Snapchat…all good they are doing what they will…we are stopped in traffic why not! I notice some couples talking and laughing…so cool to see, I see a lot more not talking at all and either staring off into space or on their phones as well, I also see some so antsy to get to where they are going that even I can feel their stress by just looking into their vehicle. But let’s not forget how phucking HUNGRY I am so the next things I started to notice where just due to the lack of food in my belly! So again I am just gazing outside to the environment and surroundings, we have been stopped maybe 15 -20 minutes now and I start noticing what people are puting into their mouth’s again. I start noticing the massive lines formed to order from the drive through’s of all these establiments, I start to notice their placement’s to exit ramps, public rest room’s, gas stop’s…I mean its beyond brilliant, honestly and if you have ever done your research on these companies they spend the time and money to figure out our habits as to where to put their food establishment’s to maximize their profits. I SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE. For myself not having kids or others to care for and that next level of mental strenght I managed to hold out…my health is that important to me for real. But this is where the COMPASSION AND EMPATHY come in…the UNDERSTANDING.

Just me, dedicated solider, healthy freak, wants to be better everyday, I say to myself over and over as I look around…why are these people eating this trash I just can’t wrap my head around it, are they lazy, uneducated about health and healthy food, do they not care about themselves, what about the kid’s I just don’t get it. But wait…how many of my fellow human’s are in the same situation as me as I look around…and here is where it started to click they all just worked a full day at their job’s- they packed up and jumped into the wagons and took off -but they are not solo they packed up a family -and all that — that itself must involve they are probably tired (meaning the brain and body are not operating at 100%) just trying to hold the piece’s together until their destination -we all get hungry we are human we all need to use the bathrooms, and we all need drinks, we need to get out and strecth our legs. I get it. Most of all what I get now is the options…what phucking options do we have? 5 hours of driving on a very popular stretch of highway between 2 major cities and I did not see 1 phucking healthy option for anyone to stop at (not saying that if there were people would stop at it) so there was no other option your choice is to eat crap food or not have your family eat and deal with that issue.

So my EMPATHY is for our society, we have become so programmed so sold so marketed to that we don’t even realize what the phuck is going on. We are not sold real food in these establishments we are sold convenience, and for that we trade our souls, our health, the health of our planet, and all the other life forms on it. MY EMPATHY is crushing me :( — …let’s start to make better choice’s beautiful people!!

Just Be Better Everday! It’s that simple #IYP ‘Longevity’

Anything can come of our thoughts

Better, or best, let’s do our best to be better!!

So on this day in our history we know what happened we remember where we were and remember how we felt! This is a simple fact for pretty much all people on the planet. Not getting into any of the politics of these acts but on everyside of the fence everyone remembers their reactions, it was that powerful of an event. I would like to use that event as a metaphor for all of use whom are trying to better oursleves everyday, and one of the reasons to better oursleves everyday is to ignite that wind of change for positivity. That positivity for people we interact with on a daily basis; example if you have children or a loved one…vibe on this for just a moment to understand the power of our actions…our energy when we awake in the morning we have numerous choice but let’s say we have choice A; which is to wake up like a cranky ass mofo, grumpy, snappy, negative -now think of your interactions with those around you in the morning (I speak from experience here and it was like walking on eggshells being around someone who is a cranky PHUCK first thing in the morning and it set’s your day off terribly if you let it) On the flip side of that choice B; imagine waking up to someone who is so happy to see you, you hear amazing ambient music in the background, the words being spoken reinforce positivity and empowerment and you just sence love (I have also been able to wake up to this style of empowerment and it is 100% like a hot humid summer compared to a nasty wind blown winter in the way your mind body and soul take in the energy and waves around you)

So for me one of the first things I worked at being better at was the morning routine…I mean this is our one life so why not make it better today than it was yesterday, so this is what I did and now waking up and my/our morning time is so pleasent, relaxing, and nourishing as the start of our day- it realy is a beautuful thing. I changed the being rushed vibe to just a chill pace, I made the first music I hear very relaxing, and some type of instrument piano or violin as these type of music waves heal and nourish. We made our tea ritual a very peaceful yet joyful expericence were we interact in a very quiet yet loving way which always leads to some type of laughter…again all these energies are of the betterment of our day each second of it. Now again do not get me twisted here…we are all phucking human so this amazing vibe does get messed with on occasion, we all human people we make mistakes!! Its just having that awareness to be able to pull yourself back on track! And to not sweat the small stuff.

The plan for me is on the daily to try to create the best version of myslef possible and that start’s from the moment I wake up until the moment I lay my head back down. Ok we spoke about the personal interactions in the most intement of moments as you awake and start the pace for your day. As we leave the house — the next part of your day is you driving yourself to work (sharing the roadsways with others) or walking to get your cup of Joe or your breakfast or the paper or whatever interactions you will have next…again use that choice A or B. If we can image a world where choice B was so prevelant that, human interaction was most of the time just a beautiful thing of empowerment and making your fellow human feel good. I mean who doesn’t love to be told ‘wow you look great today’ or ‘thank you for that’ or your awesome…the list goes on. Again to leave with that super sexy taste in your mouth so that you can than pass that on….I mean that’s the seed of change right there. When you are able to pay a good deed or energy forward to make someone else’s day…so amazing! The flip side of that something we experienced this morning was a young women (16–20 years old) who was riding her bike, and a cab driver. I did not see the issue that took place prior to the next part of the interaction but I just can not see it being worth what was said next… ‘you phuckin ‘B’….learn the rules of the road or better yet walk, your a phukcing discrace learn how to read…’ and then he blazed off so fast that no one even knew what happened. This poor young women was just right messed up mentaly I mean she could not lock up her bike, she was shaking…really who wants to ever feel like that? Who wants to make someone feel like that? I can only imagine what next few hours of her day were like…just trying to recover I am sure of it. Again not a good use of our Be better ~

The next part of your day being work or school, taking care of children or whatever it is, just be aware of your interaction’s with yourself and with others. To be better is really simple and it does not take much effort at all, just a small mental strength component that say’s I want to be better and make this world better than I was or it was yesterday. Such a beautiful thing that we can work on daily to move this planet forward on a path of higher vibrations that can only lead to amazing things!!

talk to you beautiful people soon!
